ARC Review: Herding Cats by Sarah Andersen

Rating: 5 stars!

I received an ARC on NetGalley. (Thanks!)

I've loved every one of Sarah Andersen's comic collections and Herding Cats is no exception. They are always laugh-out-loud hilarious and relatable. Her art style is adorable and I always read these books in one sitting because I get addicted to the laughs.

Highly recommend to anyone looking to get into graphic novels. You can start with any one of Sarah Andersen's collections!

Novella Review: Death and Night by Roshani Chokshi

I received a copy of this novella on NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. (Thank you!) Rating: 3.5 stars. The fact that this author made me feel all the feels and laugh in a 100 page novella tells a lot about how awesome Roshani Chokshi is. This novella is about Maya and Amar, the main characters of The Star-Touched Queen by Roshani Chokshi . In this novella, they are known as Night and Death. It describes how they first fell in love and gives you a bit of background about the characters featured in The Star-Touched Queen . I absolutely loved the dialogue! It was either very witty or very romantic but all in all, it was freaking beautiful. The only reason I didn't absolute love this novella is that there were some pretty confusing parts. Night is both a person and a state of being. Sometimes the descriptions of what Night was doing were really difficult to wrap my head around. If you loved either A Crown of Wis...

ARC Review : The Last True Poets of the Sea

I received an ARC on NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. (Thanks!) Is it bad that the main reason I picked this up is because Madeline Miller blurbed it? I'm honestly really glad I did though because this book was addicting. This book is a YA retelling of Twelfth Night. Drake creates a complex main character in Violet, who goes to live with her uncle for the summer after her brother's suicide attempt and her wild party lifestyle in New York gets her in trouble. Violet becomes obsessed with shipwrecks while she is there since her ancestors helped found the town when one of them washed ashore from a shipwreck. I loved all the interesting side characters that were created in this book as well like Liv, who is obsessed with the town's origin story and Orion, the marine biology obsessed boy who is in love with his best friend. I loved the setting, I could really feel from the writing how worn down this town is and its sleepy beach town vibes. There is...

ARC Review: Welcome to the Slipstream by Natalka Burian

Rating: 1.5 stars. I received an ARC on NetGalley in exchange for a honest review. (Thanks!) You know that feeling you get sometimes when you are watching a foreign film? The feeling that something of the importance that is happening is a bit lost on you because you're missing that context? That's sort of how I feel about this book. I would say that this novel was definitely unique, but I just wasn't knocked off my feet by it. I'm sure some people will like it, but I just don't think the writing was for me. Welcome to the Slipstream is about Van, a girl who moves a lot because of her mother's mental illness. Van's mom is a genius, but her mental illness makes her a bit difficult for people to deal with so she constantly changes jobs. The constant in Van's life is her surrogate grandmother, who helps to keep her mother sane. They move to Vegas, where Van discovers her dream of being in a band. But when her mother goes off to a self-help cult,...
